Lettuce Arctic King (Butterhead) Seeds

Lettuce Arctic King (Butterhead) Seeds

Lettuce Arctic King has been bred especially for autumn sowing. It is well known for its exceptional cold resistance. This large Butterhead variety produces tasty light green heads with crinkled leaves for harvesting in spring. Lettuce Autumn King is suitable for growing outdoors in winter but will benefit from cloche protection during particularly cold weather.

Lettuce is the staple ingredient for those tasty, fresh summer salads. So why not make it extra special by growing your own crispy lettuces. A wonderful base for your salads with its mild flavour and crisp texture.

Lettuce Arctic King Vegetable Seed Information

Seed Quantity: Approx 1,240 seeds per pack.
Site:
Sow seeds direct into growing site thinly along rows 1.5cm (1/2in) deep, spaced 30cm (12in) apart. Later sowings can be made in a cold frame.
When to Sow
August to October. 
How to Sow: Thin seedlings once large enough to handle to 30cm (12in) apart. In colder areas some protection with cloches may be required. Cold frame sowings can be transplanted to the growing site in spring, spaced as above.
Care:
Water lettuce frequently and hoe between plants regularly to prevent weeds from establishing. Dry weather may cause heads of lettuce plants to bolt so watering is particularly critical during the 2 weeks before harvesting. A thick mulch applied around the plants will help to retain moisture in the soil. Harvest lettuce when required by pulling up the entire plant before trimming off the stem with a knife.
Harvest: March to May.
